California Supreme Court · Decided September 15, 1882
61 Cal. 121; 1882 Cal. LEXIS 555

Ex parte Will

Opinion of the Court

The Court :

The question in this case is simply whether a party who has faithfully served in the organized militia of the State for the space of seven consecutive years, and who has received from the Adjutant-general a certificate to that effect, is exempt from jury duty ?

Section 1936 of the Political Code expressly provides for such exemption, and the petitioner was not liable to jury duty. Let him be discharged.
